Dave,  if you have that tank in the cabin you need to go through every possi=
ble failure mode.   It's potentially complicated.     I like Bill's idea of u=
sing the third inlet except that i had to special order a 3 way valve for my=
 iv so I question that the standard valve has that feature.

If it's less than 30 gallons i would be looking to put the tank in the lugga=
ge compartment, well secured to keep it from changing the cg
